We are in the process of switching from newborn to infant formula now. Doctor suggested you replace one scoop of old for new for few days to ease them into the new formula. Then increase to two scoops, so on and so on. Otherwise LO may reject it. We tried another formula without this transition and LO just spit it all back up or barely drank any.

As we switched formulas, our pediatrician advised us to start with one scoop of the new formula in the same batch with the original and gradually replace scoops of original with the new formula. We fed LO out of the same bottle. So say for example your LO was eating 8oz bottle needing four scoops of formula. You'd start with one scoop of the new and three of the old. Then to two new two old, then three new one old and so on. Good luck!!!

Haha! That's how I referred to it. I alternated bottles and slowly switched her over from a different brand of liquid to powder over the 7 days. Her pooping has slowed right down but didn't stop altogether like the last time I tried to switch her to powder so it must be an easier transition this time. Good luck :)
